Question

Answer 1

+1 A:

This function wont work in templates. The reason is that the variable $styles which will hold all the stylesheet html will already have been generated at this point, so drupal_add_css wont work as it adds to that. if you want to do this in your theme, you would probably have to add the css file manually

<link rel="stylesheet" ... />

The other way would be to use drupal_add_css in a module, but you might have a hard time adding the correct css files on the pages you want.

really? I had this working a week ago on another site :o - I'd edited drupal_add_css into a page in PHP mode.

I think you are right as to why the function won't work but wrong that it can't be done in the theming layer. See my answer.

@Jeremy I was a bit uncertain if you could or couldn't get it to work that way, that's why I said probably. But using preprocess_page wont help much if you want to do it per page. You might as well do it in a module then.

Answer 2

+2 A:

It is not quite clear where you are selecting the template that you have in your example. If you are selecting it from a module then you can just use drupal_add_css in the module rather than the template.

If you have your own theme you can use template_preprocess_page and put logic in there to add the relevant CSS (you can also use it to select the template to use).

Hiya, I'm really sorry but I absolutely did have this working straight from a page the other week. I thought "oh great thats easy" and built the rest of my site. Now I go back to implement it and it's not working. Typical :P

Answer 4

+1 A:

Sorry to bump an old thread, but this is ranked highly on google under the search them 'drupal_add_css $style', so I thought I'd post another solution here.

Anyway, it is certainly possible to use drupal_add_css() inside your template.php file; this page has a good example of how to do just that.

Hopefully this helps someone.

Answer 5

A:

Thanks for the link, wyrmmage. That's very useful. I think the rest of the code in the page is unneccessary. You probably just need these since drupal 6 already automatically check for file existence:

drupal_add_css(path_to_theme() . '/css/yourcss.css', 'theme');
// Add the following to regenerate $styles. 
// This is needed for template_preprocess_page() since css is already generated at this point.
$variables['styles'] = drupal_get_css();

Answer 6

A:

This code inside template.php works for me:

function alagna_preprocess_page(&$vars) { drupal_add_css(path_to_theme() . '/header_1.css', 'theme'); $vars['css'] = drupal_add_css(); $vars['styles'] = drupal_get_css(); }

explained:

alagna is the theme name
header_1.css is the css file required.

Answer 7

+1 A:

I have noticed something weird and it might fix your problem:

drupal_add_css( drupal_get_path('theme','themname') . '/working.css','module' ,'all' , false );

drupal_add_css( drupal_get_path('theme','themname') . '/path/to/folder/notworking.css','module' ,'all' , false );

The first one will work ebcause the style it in the main them folder The second line will not work because the style is in a sub folder !

Edit:

i think it did not work because i did not write the path the the style file properly :S so please disregard my answer

drupal_add_css( drupal_get_path('theme','test') . '/pages/subpage/style.css','theme');

is working
